Herman Miller Embody

The Pros:Ergonomic. Embody is 95 percent recyclable, has 42 percent recycled content, and contains no PVCs. The higher back is good for posture.

The Cons:Expensive. Difficult to find online. Odd looking.

Designed, constructed and tested for superior ergonomics, the Herman Miller Embody chair series features a modernistic aesthetic and superior comfort. Geared towards professionals who spend a majority of their time in a seated position, the Embody design includes an open concept back spine system that conforms and gives support to users where they need it most, as well as advanced mechanics for smooth, responsive, and agile movement in all three dimentions.

I finally ordered my Embody last week - anyone know why it wasn't available online until several months after the launch?! Anyway, $1600 is a lot for a chair, but when you work 12 to 15 hours per week you'll try anything for a healthy back :)

I went with the black fabric (boring, I know), and graphite base. Only a few sites are selling them, but I went with HermanMillerSeating.com - seemed like the most legit site. I'll let everyone know once I've had a chance to give it the tush test! :)
